Wolf on the Trail: From Miami to San Juan to Loisaida (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798895531853)

As a young man, D.I. Wolf fought in the Spanish Civil War--on the losing side. He later survived Auschwitz, while losing his wife, his six-year-old daughter and other family members. His continuing quest to build a new life has brought him to the New World.

It is now the 1980s in Miami, where Wolf meets a real estate mogul who claims that his disappeared wife was taken from him. The realtor offers to hire Wolf to track her down and bring her back to her loving husband. Wolf accepts the challenge, the adventure and the needed money.

His search takes him back to Puerto Rico, where Wolf and the couple had lived, many years ago, without knowing each other.

After traveling the island, from the blue-cobbled streets of Old San Juan to ocean-front hotels and funky guest houses, Wolf finds Eva and learns the real reason for her departure.

The 65-year-old Wolf and the 50-plus-year-old Eva form a relationship--at first tentative, then, gradually, loving, as they are pursued across the island, then through New York's Lower East Side by, among others, members of the Brooklyn-based Russian Mafia.
